Mayfly

Written by Joe White

Directed by Jeff Graves

Mayfly explores rebirth in the aftermath of tragedy. Mayfly premiered at the Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond, in April 2018, winning Joe White the Off-West End Award for Most Promising Playwright in 2019.

Set in a Shropshire village, Joe White’s tender and wise play is suffused with grief, loss – and unexpected laughs in which a family searches for new beginnings

Ben thinks his family might be better off without him, but his wife Cat has read her stars: ‘Today a very special person will appear from out the blue.’

Their daughter Loops is getting ready for a date. It’s her first one, and she has everything crossed.

‘An affecting debut play… White has a great ear for the sharp and sometimes spiteful edges of grief’ – Time Out
